A Lunatic's HaIlucination.

LCopn'igM 1857 by james Gordon Bcnnett.l
BERLIN, Jan. H.-[New York Herald
Cable-Special to the BEE Hardly month
passes without some lunatic trying to force
his way into the kaiser's palace 1t is not
always the same lunatic, for each time the
dsturber is arrested. But nearly all the
cranks in question have hitherto had a
strange family likeness and have acted more
or less in the same fashion. A workingman
who was arrested couple of days ago marked
a new departure. He might be described as
plissful Bulgaromaniac. A policeman
grabbed him as he was trying to smuggle
himself into the hall OF the palace. On his
being examined at the police station the
prisoner demonstrated with his captors.
"Yo GU must let me 60" he said. III have
been appointed prince of Bulgaria by an
angel with gllttering robes. The angel said:
Get thee unto the German kaiser, thou fourth
godhead, (vierte gottheit, and tell him
thy name is Augustus, prince of Bulgaria.
Joy and gladneSS shalt thou bring unto the
world because thou has power to Danish
poverty"
Having delivered himself of the remark
able statement the prisoner relapsed into
dignitied silence till after supper, when he
became uproarous and was locked up for the
night. He has since been removed to an
asylum. Possibly the excitement continu-
ing to-day over the army bill and the mys-
terious illusions of Won Moltke and Bis
marcl to France may beget fresh lunacy pre-

TRENTON n. D., Jan. l. The house met

arrested to-day, but were at once
admitted TO bail, the object of arrest being
simply 10 lay ground for proceedings against
Governor Albeit, who directed the police
mems actions The purpose of the regular
democrats to organize an assembly on their
own basis has been abandoned.
In accordance with the resolution adopted
yesterday the clerk did not call the names of
Furcy and Walters, both democrats. This
created another scene of confusion. Two
democratic members, McDermott and Feeney,
seized the roll from the clerk and attempted
to add the names of Turley and Walters, but
after free fight the clerk recovered the roll.
At 1870 p. m the house, by vote of 80 TO 2S,
adjourned to 3 p. m. The senate met at
p. IN. and organized, but was again postponed
10 tomorrow at 3 p. III. The excitement over

seat Walters, of the Second Mercer district,
having failed, il was voted to refer all evil
dence in his case and Turkeys to the commit

A BAD MAN TO MARRY.
Three Wives and a Stepdaughtcr Die
After Being Insured.

CHICAGO, Jan. 12.-1he police stopped the
funeral of a girl named Lucy krug, aged
nineteen, and who formerly lived at 533 Lar
rabee street, she having died under suspicious
circumstances. Soon after several detectives
and deputy coroner and his assistants ar
rived on the scene. In September 1855,
Lawrence krug, carpenter, was
married to Mrs. Keidelmeyer, and Lucy
was her daughter. Krug and his
wife started on wedding tour to New
York, he previously inSuring his wife's life
for $1,000 in the knights and Ladies of
Honor. When on their wedding tour Mrs.
Krug died, and Mr.. krug married again in
New \ ork. He had been at home but a
short time when his second wife, whose life
had been insured in the same association,
also died. Two months after her death he
married Mrs. Rohr, who was nine years
September last. Six weeks later
she was attacked with typhoid
fever and died. This last wife was
also insured in the same association as the
others. During her illness she was attended
by DIR. kallstcin. Suspicious were aroused
at her death by the fact OF the insurance,
which was made out TO her daughter, Mrs.
Charles Anderson, who was forced by Krug
to make over her claims on the insurance to
him. Lucy lliddelmeyer, or Krug, as she
was usually called, was insured in the same
association, and the policy was made payable
to her steptather, krug. lie was placed
under surveillance. DR.. Bluthard made
post mortem examination of the body. The
funeral cortege was delayed for an hour and
a hall while the post mortem eXamination

suit was the announcement that the girl had
died from natural causes in the form of aIfec-
tOns of the liver and kidneys. Krug, who
had been drinking whisky and ours

guard, was released and the funeral
proceeded. The coroners jury adjourned

accurate and sensible. Prince Bismarck is
right when he says the majority of
Frenchmen do not want war; lie is also right
in saying ministry might come into power
in France that in q rash moment would pre-
cipitate a conflict, for France is becoming
Americanizcd. and the direction Of affairs
might come into the hands OF individuals
without scruple, who, to conceal their squan-
dering of public money, would hoist the
sacred dag of tevanchc."
A VIOLENT HARASGUr.
The Bonapartst Pays says: ."Prncc Bis
marck predicts war, for, although he declares
he will not attack us, he nevertheless alludes
to certain changes in the power of France in
which war would be the only safety valve.
After the chancelior's violent harangue we
shall be mistaken If he does not interfere be-
fore long in our domestic concerns By means
of his famous moral PRESSURE
lie TELLS THE TRUTH.
The radical Nation says: Bismarck is an
orator who always tells the truth. For many
years he has been the diplomatic cassandra
OF Europe. To-day he declares for peace
simply because it is the supreme will of his
imperial master not to compromise his laurels
by new struggle during the remaining
months or years of his life"
THE REAL DANGER
The royaist and Catholic Universe says:
"Prince Bismarck justly points out that the
real danger is the instability of the French
government. For this only the republican
government Is to blame:"
WEIGH his WORDS,
The Orleanist Francais says "The Ger
man chancellor has spoken, and after all who
is there in Europe that can guarantee that
war shall not break out tomorrow or in a
week or month? Every Frenchman should
weigh every word uttered by the chancellor.
He draws picture of the spoiations to which
Germany would be subjected If France should
prove victori Gus in 1S90-thc resurrection of
Hanover and Holland and the loss of every
thing to the banks of the Rhine"
KEEP THE RIFLES READY.
The conservative Liberte says: "Prlnce
Bismarck's utterances mean for the moment
peace, or rather prolonging of the armed
truce. We must keep our rifles ready in
hand, but must not fire them"

Various Comments OF the French
Frcss on the Declaration.


tCOpuiDM 1857 bv James Gordon Beniet.1
PARIS, (via Havre) Jan. 19.-lNew York
Herald Cable-Special to the BEE. l-All
the evening papers devote an entire first
page to lismarck's now famous speech and.
with the sole exception of the BonapartSt
Pays, all praise the unconventional frank
ness Of the chancellor's speech, and regard
ita a presage of peace for at least the year
1887.
THE SPEECH APPLAUDFD.
The moderate republican Temps says: "The
Machiayellan adage, that speech was given
to man that he might conceal his thoughts
never found favor with Prince Bismarck. lie
always states the truth frankly and brutally.
Taken in this sense his speech in the reich
stag Will be received throughout Europe as an
earnest of peace. Prince Bismarck recog-
nized the fact that France does not dream at
the present moment of attacking Germany,
nor does Germany intend to attack France.
Prince Bismalck's speech has cleared the
political atmosphere and removed the gen
eral uneasineSs."
NO FEAR FROM GERMANY.
The Opportunist Paris says: "i'rnce Bis
marck's declaration that neither Germany
nor France wishes TO seek a quarrel with
each other forces us to believe there Is no
danger in this quarter, but the real danger
lies in the orient, where il will be most diff
cult for Germany much longer to maintain
friendly relations with both Russia and
Austria, AS to England and italy, instead
of regarding them as possible allies, Prince
Bismarck refuses even TO notice them. They
don't come into his calculations, and little
matters it 10 him what they may think about
his policy What slap for the Germans of
London. What severe blow for the Bis.
marckers OF Rome"
BRUTALLS FRANK,
The republican France says: "Prince Bis
marck pronounced yesterday one of the most
important speeches he ever made. Never be-
fore has he eyinced more vigorous thought
nor more powerful logic and ptiless pre-
ciSion, and the brutal frankness that always
characterileS his eloQuence never shone
more brilliantly. He moreover provided us
with ON argumen. that soon we shall be able
to turn to our own profit lie declares that
II was worth Germany's while to have us as
allies, and that similar military bill would
not be refused by the French chamber. We
shall recall these words when our military re-
organization bill comes up for disposition"
ACCURATE AND SENSIBLE.
The republican National says: "a wise
frank is better than a doubtful friend. Prince
Bismarck has come out frankly, and his
